It shouldn't be ileagal, if cafe's got da connection opened to the Public its up for grabs...
what if I lived above the cafe and picked up the signal they have opened to share Then what? , I couldn't use it?...
Thats BS... If They don't want anyone to use it then they can make it private and give their patrons the password when patrons walk thru the door... (i.e. via text on the menu or sumthin)

well it both is and isnt as simple as that
I was always under the assumption that if you have an OPEN wireless network you were basically "granting" authorization to use the service.
but i suppose that isn't very logical , as just because i leave my house door unlocked doesnt mean i am "granting" authorization to come use my stuff.hatisblack at yahoo.comComment

Take your laptop tp Maui. Open it up on any street in Kahului and you get internet. That's theivery?? Who the fuck am I supposed to pay? Just send a check into the city of Kahului? It's not a secure service. I mean you don't need an acces spas or anything. It just works.
Upcountry I have a desktop and an actual paid connection but if we're out and about you can just get it. I mean it's an XP so it's always just connected to the wifi in town.
And naw man, seriously I had no idea you had to pay for it.
How do you pay for it though? Like if Starbucks has an open connection and 8 other stores in the area do as well, who do you pay?

I agree. Same thing as leaving a shop open and unattended and being shocked that people are going in and robbing it blind. Same goes for your personal wifi, secure your shit dumbass, it ain't rocket science.Originally posted by JamesKStrapon Seduction - femdom blog | TwitterComment

not knowing who not to pay doesn't mean that taking something for free isn't theft.
you are aware that you are getting it for free.. you are aware that others are paying for it. you are aware that you should be paying for it. you are aware that no one is intending for you to use it for free.Comment

its amazing when it has to do with the internet right and wrong go out the windowComment

Note to myself:
Keep old empty cups ( Starbucks, 2nd cup, etc..) and put on dash while using wifi.I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !
But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....Comment

But If It's a Hot Spot and the connection is being shared openly with the public then their giving it away...
In an effort to attract clientel (hello) marketing gimmick, and it works...
just like when U see store employees giving away physcal goods in front of the biz in an effort to get people to come inside and buy /spend money...
They don't give that stuff away and then call the cops and have you arrested cause you decided not to go in, and walk away instead
So for every one using it outside theres one inside buying sumthin..
thats the price / consequence the biz pays / takes...
Otherwise why make it public just supply the paying customers with the passwordLast edited by peeperpimp; 05-25-2007, 07:57 AM. ICQ: 377517467

Anyone here ever find money on the ground? Quarter? Dollar? 5 bucks?
Was it YOUR money? Did you turn it into the authorities? Did you try to find the rightful owner? You know it wasn't your money. Let me guess, you played 'finder keepers' with it right?
FUCKING THIEVES!

This is more like a store owner standing in front of his store and giving away free sample in an effort to attract customers...
Some peeps will go in and some won't...
is it right for the store owner to call the cops and have those that accepted the free sample and walked away arrested cause they didn't come in and spend money...
C'mon, Thats just stupid ICQ: 377517467

Exactly right. By law in most states, you have to take the money to the police, they will impound it. If no one claims it in 90 days, then the copy of the impound sheet, says that you own it.
IF the money if a hight enough value, then the PD may try to take it through the courts.
Other wise, if you keep it, you are guilty if theft.PornGuy skype me pornguy_epic

Yeah, and if everybody was nice and caring and gave each other hugs we could all sit under a waterfall and sing songs and watch the birds and prance around with flowers in our hair.
But back in the real world you lock your doors, don't let people see your ATM pin number, use firewalls and secure your wifi because, NEWSFLASH, not everybody is nice and ethical and says thank you.
That is the point you so obviously are trying so hard to ignore.Strapon Seduction - femdom blog | TwitterComment

So, because not everybody follows the rules it is okay to break them? I am trying to follow your reasoning.Comment

heh , there actually is aprocess for this..
I found about 2 thousand dollars when i was a kid and my parents made me turn it in to the cops , and they make advertisements in the paper asking people to identify the cash , and strangely enough nobody came forward and i got the cash back .
but of course we have all found like a $20 or $50 bill before and not said anything. , not sure what the crime would be if you could prove it ..
Like if lets say there was a stickeron the bill or something, would someone get charged for not turning in a $20 bill he found, and what would the charge be ?hatisblack at yahoo.comComment

how are you supposed to know not to get into someones car and drive off in if no one tells you not to.
are you fucking retarded? maybe ask the owners? maybe seek clarification before stealing? if you know its not yours.. you know someone is paying for it... any person with an IQ over 10 probably realizes (and certainly the law expects you to) that it probably wasn't intended for you to use for free.
.... OOOOOH..
oops. sorry... forgot i was talking to the same fucking morons that claimed they were "forced" to steal from affiliates.
my bad.

That's the cafe's fault in my opinion, they should have a password to access it. When you pay, they then give you the password or something like that.Comment

I don't think it's being ignored.
Security is just common sense, because there are people out there with loose enough ethics to try and take stuff that doesn't belong to them - that's a fact of life.
But any lack of security still doesn't excuse the fact that they do.
I think the point that a lot of people here seem to be missing, is just because it may be easy to take something that doesn't belong to you, that doesn't all-of-a-sudden mean that you have the right to.-D.

Standing on the corner of a street and you pick up a WiFi signal. I'll ask again how do you find the owner?how are you supposed to know not to get into someones car and drive off in if no one tells you not to.
